Specially designed, split-in-half element can be easily replaced without moving any connected equipment.
Patent No. 5,611,732
Dura-Flex couplings can be found hard at work in many industries such as water treatment, paper and metal processing, power generation, and material handling. These couplings are ideal for a wide variety of applications with uniform to heavy shock loads including:
• Pumps• Fans/Blowers• Compressors• Electric Motors• Conveyors
TB Wood’s Dura-Flex couplings “split-in-half” element design allows for easy element installation/replacement without moving connected equipment or disturbing the shaft connection.
Spacer design can accommodate a large range of shaft spacing with few parts. Patented design of the urethane bond to the leading edge of the steel shoe bolted to the hub, minimizes bond stress for long coupling life.
These couplings are highly flexible and able to accommodate shaft misalignments (1/16” parallel misalignment and 4˚ angular misalignment) while minimizing torsional vibration and preventing damage to connected equipment.
Specially formulated polyurethane material provides superior weathering, chemical resistance, and dynamic properties.
• Torque up to 4.50 kNm; 39,500 in.lbs.• Easy to assemble/replace• High misalignment ratings
• No maintenance/lubrication
• Part-for-part interchangeable with industry standard design
• In-stock versatile spacer design can accommodate many configurations with few parts
• Bore-to-size (BTS), Sure-Grip bushed (QD), and Taper-Lock® hubs are available
• All dimensions including hardware and fasteners
Dura-Flex couplings are designed from the ground up using finite element analysis to maximize flex life
Applications
Features (Metric)

Metric Coupling Selection
Determining Load Characteristics and Service Factor
Determining Prime Mover Classification
Calculate Design Horsepower or Design Torque• If Prime Mover is a 970, 1450, or 3000 RPM motor Design KW = Prime Mover KW x Service Factor Go to page 4 and reference the corresponding motor RPM column.
• If Prime Mover is not one of the three speeds listed above Design KW @ 100 RPM = (Primer Mover KW x Service Factor x 100) / Coupling RPM Go to page 4 and reference KW @ 100 RPM column.
• If Using Prime Mover Torque Design Torque = Prime Mover Torque x Service Factor Go to page 4 and reference Torque column.

Note: The above applications depict the generally accepted conditions encountered in industry. Conditions subject to extreme temperatures, abrasive dusts, corrosive liquids, excessively high starting torques, etc., must be considered as extra heavy shock loads. These conditions will increase service factors. Consult TB Wood’s for these selections.

TB Wood’s offers a wide range of couplings for industrial applications For over 70 years, TB Wood’s has been designing and manufacturing innovative coupling solutions to meet the requirements for a broad variety of applications spanning many industries. TB Wood’s couplings represent the latest in technology, featuring superior design and exceptional quality to ensure long-lasting performance in all types of industrial applications including printing presses, machine tools, cooling tower fans, food processing equipment, pumps, blowers, electric motors, compressors, mixers, and conveyors,
Form-Flex® Disc CouplingsForm-Flex metal disc couplings consist of two hubs, a spacer and two high strength carbon or stainless steel flexible discs. Modified and special designs are commonly supplied to meet specific application conditions. Available in carbon steel, stainless steel or with corrosion resistant coatings. Models available with torque capacities up to 270 kNm; 2,400,000 in.lbs.
See Catalog P-1686-TBW
L-Jaw Elastomeric CouplingsJaw-type elastomeric couplings are an economical, proven solution for general purpose applications. Jaw couplings are easy to install and require no lubrication or maintenance. Four different flexible insert types are available: Buna-N rubber, Urethane, Hytrel™ and Bronze. Jaw couplings are an excellent choice for all light and medium duty general purpose industrial applications. Models available with torque capacities up to 0.70 kNm; 6,228 in.lbs.
See Catalog P-1686-TBW
Sure-Flex® Elastomeric CouplingsSure-Flex is a TB Wood’s original! Sure-Flex Couplings utilize a rubber (EPDM or Neoprene) or Hytrel™ thermoplastic flex element (sleeve) to transmit torque and accommodate shaft misalignments. Sure-Flex couplings have exceptional torsional flexibility, and the 4-way flexing action absorbs virtually all types of shock, vibration, misalignment, and end float. These couplings are an excellent choice when low cost, high flexibility, vibration damping, and easy installation are primary concerns. Models available with torque capacities up to 8.20 kNm; 72,480 in.lbs.
See Catalog P-1686-TBW
G-Flex Grid CouplingsState-of-the-art design from Bibby Transmissions, the original grid coupling manufacturer. G-Flex is an all-metal coupling that provides positive protection against the damaging effects of shock loads and vibration. Aluminum horizontal cover (T10), and all-steel vertical cover (T20) designs are available. G-Flex tapered grid couplings are an excellent choice where torsional flexibility/vibration damping are primary concerns. Models available with torque capacities up to 169 kNm; 1,500,000 in.lbs.
